Just Saw It at the Castro Theatre in San Francisco! :-)

"This movie is incredible. I saw the shorts on the Internet years ago and was excited to find out that a movie version was showing at the Castro Theatre. I saw it this eveing and was laughing the whole time! The puns kept coming and the humor was sharp and quick and very queer!



I won't give away the plot, but to say it explores a lot of contemporary issues of what it means to be queer, both socially and scientifically. Add a little religion and you have our whole current gender paradigm turned on its head! Jesus is great too and saves the day at one point. The gay vs. straight jokes are hysterical. But, be warned: You *must* have a sense of humor to watch this. If you love cosmic humor, this will certainly tickle your funny bone!



For those at home, Queer Duck is the name of the main character who is a-- wait for it-- a queer duck. His partner is Openly Gator. A friend is Bipolar Bear. They have adventures together that are silly and poke fun at LGBT culture. There are a lot of puns, plenty of celebrity caricatures, and a lot of social satire. I highly recommend it as a part of everyone's transfiguration."

Laugh-a-nanosecond

"If you don't laugh at one joke...wait a second, you'll be laughing at the next fifteen. Queer Duck has something for just about everybody. With his trademark saturation comedy, incorporating broad strokes of shtick, an onslaught of "in" jokes, and zillions of little digs, Mike Reiss follows the travails of Queer Duck, his long-suffering companion Openly Gator, and their pals Oscar Wildcat and Bi-Polar Bear. There are celebrity cameos aplenty and David Duchovny in a particularly well-cast voiceover."

Fun (and Funny) Spoof of Everything Gay

"Created by one of the driving forces behind "The Simpsons," this adult cartoon about the quirks of gay life is an absolute blast from beginning to end. "Queer Duck" spoofs everything from drama queens, divas, gay conversion therapy, dance numbers, family gatherings, and a variety of other knowing gay characteristics. Worthy of repeated viewings for the rapid fire jokes, and basically a very fun way to spend 75 minutes (if only it were longer!). Included are 5 original shorts that were first seen on Showtime prior to premiere episodes of "Queer as Folk"."

Takes a poke at everyone - very funny!

"The film does a good job of bringing the Queer Duck web snippets to the big screen. The story lines take a solid poke at the morons who condemn without any knowledge or understanding, and provides some valuable information about our gay brothers & sisters. Also, it's just plain funny so it's great for a laugh break if your party is going slowly and needs a pick-me-up!"
